n. 553 The letters river

In this nocturnal landscape, everything takes on a symbolic dimension: the poet sitting on a rock, the mountain formed by the letters of the alphabet, the deep night, the silence of contemplation. We are far from the character who meditates in front of a wall, here the poet is in contact with a world open to all winds: the landscape is not decorative but a state of mind.
